Most of the 350 4x4s should have no problem pulling nearly 1,000lbs. and will go almost anywhere you point them. I don't know exactly what you're looking to use the machine for but the common differences between models are; 4x4 or 4x2, full-time 4x4 or selectable, hi and low range or hi range only, automatic or manual, solid rear axle or IRS, carbureted or EFI, front differential lock or not. These are just a few of the things that should be considered when buying. Some are very important depending on use, and some may simply be preferences. So, what exactly are you going to use it for? Recreational riding, work, or both? How much do you want to tow? Riding terrain- rocks, mud, fields, snow, gravel roads steep, level, etc.

I hear ya. Either one will definitely work fine for what you want to do and will be fun to blast around on. Generally, Hondas seem to have the best track record when it comes to longevity and reliability, but a Yamaha, Kawi, or Zuki would be a great choice as well. Depends more upon the individual condition of the machine. Check for oil level and color, tightness of all bearings and bolts, look for big dents in the bottom of the machine and overall cleanliness. This will tell you a lot about how the machine has been treated over the years.

Both have there +'s and -'s.
Belt: Very easy to ride. Just point and gas it and your always in the right gear. They can slip if you get them wet. Can break at the worst possable time.
Gear: Need getting use to. Need to be in the right gear for what you are doing. Very strong. Less power loss through gear to gear. Better fuel mileage.
All in all, I would pick what quad is in better shape rather than looking at what drives it. Both systems are very good nowdays.
I also somewhat agree with reconranger. These are very old quads for driving out in the middle of nowhere and expecting to get back.
If I had to go that old I would go with the Honda.

I agree there. If you are going to buy something that old go with the honda. Problem you are faced with is the older quads parts are harder to find when they break down and they will break down. The technology is so much better now and they still break down, however much less. I think you will spend more repairing the real old bike than if you looked for a newer used bike.
